Mr. Bond, a conservative who is a member of the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee and has been an outspoken critic of President Clinton, had been considered vulnerable in the campaign because he won his previous two races with small margins of victory.
The system tends to favor Labour because that party wins many districts with small margins, while Conservative candidates tend to win seats in landslides, meaning votes are wasted; the Liberal Democrats, meanwhile tend to run second in many regions, accumulating relatively large vote totals but fewer seats.
The handheld hardware itself is quickly becoming a commodity product with small margins.
This tax will be imposed on old businesses; new businesses (after one year); bankrupt companies; companies that made no profits; companies with small margins; companies with big margins all treated the same.
Such verification reduces respiration induced geometrical uncertainties, enabling safe delivery of 4D radiotherapy such as gated radiotherapy with small margins.
Results from brachytherapy series have shown that local dose application to the tumor with small margins of 1 2 cm are excellent with local control rates of 79 87 (−100) % [ 10, 40, 47– 50].
Since complication rates are dependent on the irradiated volume, the rationale for smaller safety margins is an optimization of the risk-benefit ratio [ 33, 51]; initial clinical data on IMRT for soft tissue sarcomas of the extremity have shown local control of 96%% at 3 years with small margins of 2 cm [ 52].
As dose-response relationships have been demonstrated for several tumor types ("higher dose to the tumor = better chance of cure"), for example, in radical radiotherapy of prostate cancer or non-small-cell lung cancer, efforts to increase the radiotherapy dose in limited tumor volumes with small margins were undertaken.
Hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (HFSRT) has been proposed as a combination of high-precision treatment with small margins and maximum sparing of normal brain tissue, non-invasive technique and short treatment duration using single fraction doses of 3 Gy to 9 Gy (Table 4).
It is also a much faster and more efficient method with smaller margin for error with such a delicate clay body.
